Amcor battle heats up.

Good news today [Tues 8 August] for the workers at Amcor Flexibles in Preston. As the company is going to the IRC at 4pm seeking possible fines against rank and file union members Amcor workers at nine other plants have taken industrial action.

Management at Amcor is attempting to use the full weight of Howard’s IR law to stop a strike at Amcor Flexibles in Preston. The workers walked out on Tuesday 1 August in support of workers targeted for forced redundancy.
